Never Understand

Between 1984 and 1986 The Jesus And Mary Chain were the best band in the world. Their mixture of melody and noise came at a time when music was boxed into categories which the Mary Chain made obsolete. To celebrate 30 years since the release of Psychocandy Piper Gates has released a limited edition print of the Mary Chain in their fab snarling Psychocandy formation. Printed on high quality 250 gram silk paper the print comes in an edition of 45 copies only and is signed and numbered by the artist. Available here.

Subterranean 85 - 86

Recently I re-digitized some old cassettes of Primal Scream. The tapes captured their early brilliance as a post punk version of The Byrds or Love where they accidentally created a sound which would later be expanded upon by The Stone Roses. A cover was needed for this project so it was decided to capture the subject and the time which the recordings were made. To do this it was decided to present the contents as a bootleg album from the time complete with badly pasted on covers and wrong song titles.

Sleeve for Fence Records popsters Viva Stereo, a decision was made to make the sleeve look like it was a factual Pelican Book. By using the striking simplicity of the marber grid together with the Pelican look the cover could be viewed at any size and still be legible whilst retaining a striking appearance. There's a 100 physical copies doing the rounds on cd or you can buy the digital version here.
